Audi has introduced laser welding for the production of the Audi A4.
The laser welding technique employs a high-energy light beam directed onto the weld by means of optical lenses or fiber optics.
During the welding process, the upper panel is welded onto the partially melted lower panel, creating a weld joint with no additional material.
When performing repairs, laser weld seams are replaced by SG welds or pop rivets.

Fig. 12: Bonded Joints
Courtesy of VOLKSWAGEN UNITED STATES, INC.
In the case of the bonded joints, the joint between the sheet metal parts is formed only by the adhesive.
Fig. 13: Spot-Welded Bonded Joints
Courtesy of VOLKSWAGEN UNITED STATES, INC.
In spot welded bonded joints, an electrically conductive adhesive is used between the panels, which allows problem free penetration for spot welding.
The welding current must not be increased during spot-weld bonding. The pre-press time must be extended to about 30 - 50 seconds because of the displacement of the adhesive. The emitted fumes must be extracted.
Spot-weld bonding is not performed in the service department.
Special attention should be paid to these areas in accident diagnosis and repair work.
Note the following points: Do not test strength using a chisel or relieve tension by hammering, otherwise the bond will be destroyed.
These joints should be inspected particularly closely when diagnosing accident damage and after performing straightening work on the body.
If the joint is not accessible with pop rivets, it must be repaired with an arc-welded seam (SG). In this case the entire area of the joint must be re-welded, as the heat produced by welding destroys the adhesive in the bonded joint. The SG seams should be welded working from the thin to the thick panel. Always extract fumes.
When making repairs, welded joints can be used in place of all spot-welded bonded joints and certain bonded joints if no suitable body adhesive is available.
Do not make the repair with only the same spot welds or seams as originally used in production. These alone are not adequate for a proper joint.
The repair methods are shown in detail on the following information.
NOTE:
Ensure good root penetration at all joints.
Seal off repaired joint flanges and apply cavity sealing where necessary.
